Re: Contributing to Gnumeric

Hello Dan,

Gnumeric is mostly in maintenance mode these days, so there is little 
writing going on, either on the web site or for the documentation. If 
you are looking to join a vibrant community, I suggest you look to other 
efforts within GNOME. You might look here:
   https://wiki.gnome.org/DocumentationProject/Contributing


If you are interested, in particular, to work on the Gnumeric 
spreadsheet, then we could talk about your specific interests to see 
what would be the most fun for you to work on. Let us know what 
motivates you in particular: e.g. presenting user interfaces, explaining 
workflows, presenting complex analysis. The documentation is in 
particular need of:
   1) being updated to the latest releases
   2) including a deep explanation of the spreadsheet native addressing
      scheme: R#C#
The former involves redoing most of the screenshots, the latter requires 
a deep understanding of spreadsheets.

cheers,
   ~adrian
